A fashionably dressed young woman in a low-cut dress sits talking to an old (bearded but not bald) cleric in monastic habit who holds her hand. Behind the pair another monk peeks around the door smirking. Above the door a painting shows semi-clothed figures. Miss Tittup was a character in Garrick's "Bon Ton".
